ED'ITO R IA L QWe submit the Mirage to the public trusting that it will he receivecl in the spirit in. am! for Which, the hook was compoundea. True to established custom, the Junior class has been the means of its edition; as the college Annual it stands a survey of the yearst work. gathering into itself all the elements that go to make up the life of the school. We have endeavorexl to show truly and impartially the advantages and the strength of the University. yet have not closed our eyes to the faults. Upon all has been peured the acid of hantering fun and kindly satire With the hope to precipitate a closer feeling of union among the stuaents1 and between them 311a the University hocly. With this year DePauw enters upon a new epoch in her history. She has given the control of affairs into the hands of Edwin Hughes believing him to he a man of ability and with qualities that peculiarly Ht him for the place; alrearly he manifests an energy anti a grasp of conditions that is very satisfying. We hope for him success in these new duties. May he infuse into the University management the activity and progressiveness of the younger generation. steer- ing out into the hroacl open current of prosperity. Let him hear in mincl. however. that the twill of the student hocly is a potent force in affairs. He will have accomplished much. it: in his administrationt he gains the respect and love which has ever been tenclered the man now going out. whose wise guidance of the University through a time of trouble and clepression has Won for him a lasting place in our hearts. Two members have been added to the faculty this year. Miss Kimball. of Mariam has been given the French cle- partment. thus relieving the too heavy duties of Miss Kern. who has had to combine French with her German work. This addition places French on a higher plane. by giving room for advancerl classes. A similar division of labor has been macle in the department of ABihlical Literature; Professor Howland, of New York University. has been elected. assistant to Dr. Gohin. aml also assumes the duties of the rhetoric classes. giving opportunity to Professor Brumhaugh to suhstttute in their stead. some classes in Psychology. a department which has sugered neglect in the past few years. Professor Howland is proving an all around man. and Wins the favor of the students by his interest in all college enterprises. His enthusiasm for athletics should stancl a reproof as well as example to many of our college lads, for we believe it largely clue to lack of interest and active support that Depauw Aces not stand at the head. With our ex- cellent manager. Athletic Board, and the systematic method of support that has been lately instituted. we shoulcl have winning teams. But What can he accomplished when students will not come out to support them? We regret the tendency towards skepticism that induces our students to remain indigerently at home. only to ritlicule and criticise when V they hear of a defeat.
